The Cadillac ATS, which stands for Alpha Touring Sedan, was a compact executive car produced by General Motors and marketed by Cadillac from 2012 to 2019.

The ATS was built on General Motors' Alpha platform and was offered in both rear-wheel and all-wheel drive configurations. Initially, the base engine was a 2.5-liter I-4
